The Knesset, Israel's Parliament, is about to give a first reading to a bill presented by Zevouloun Orlev, leader of the National Religious Party parliamentary group, that would make Sundays additional days off work, in exchange for the resumption of Fridays as normal working days. In addition, the number of allowed infractions to the Saturday Sabbath, would be increased, particularly in public transports, to allow non-practicing Israelis to better take advantage of their weekly day off.
